Scholarly publications draw collective attention beyond disciplines, leading to highly skewed citation distributions in sciences. Uncovering the mechanisms of such disparate popularity is very challenging, since a wide spectrum of research fields are not only interacting and influencing one another but also time-evolving. Accordingly, this study aims to understand citation dynamics across STEM fields in terms of latent affinity and novelty decay, which is based upon Bayesian inference and learning of the Affinity Poisson Process model (APP) with bibliography data from the Web of Science database. The approaches shown in the study can shed light on predicting and interpreting popularity dynamics in diverse application domains, by considering the effect of time-varying subgroup interactions on diffusion processes.

Emerging Themes

Tourism and landscape are broad and complex scientific research fields, as is the synergy between them has given rise to a volume of articles diverse in nature, subject matter and methodology. These difficulties mean that, at present, there is no complete theoretical framework to support this tourism and landscape research, nor complete knowledge of its structure and organization. This motivates the present work, which constitutes the first attempt at mapping this research topic by applying bibliometric techniques using VOSviewer and Science Mapping Analysis Software Tool (SciMAT) software. A total of 3340 articles from journals indexed in Web of Science were analyzed. The results obtained confirm that interest in the study of these concepts has been growing, especially in the last decade. The main contribution of this work lies in the identification of work themes that were basic to the construction of the field but that are currently in decline, such as “cultural heritage” and other themes important to the field that should continue to be dealt with, such as “national parks” or “geotourism”. The transversal nature of sustainability that appears in the network of keywords related to currently emerging themes, such as “planning” and “environment”, is also highlighted and reinforced.

Levels Of Integration

ABSTRACTWhat factors inhibit or facilitate cross-subfield conversations in political science? This article draws on diffusion scholarship to gain insight into cross-subfield communication. Diffusion scholarship represents a case where such communication might be expected, given that similar diffusion processes are analyzed in American politics, comparative politics, and international relations. We identify nearly 800 journal articles published on diffusion within political science between 1958 and 2008. Using network analysis we investigate the degree to which three “common culprits”—terminology, methodological approach, and journal type—influence levels of integration. We find the highest levels of integration among scholars using similar terms to describe diffusion processes, sharing a methodological approach (especially in quantitative scholarship), and publishing in a common set of subfield journals. These findings shed light on when cross-subfield communication is likely to occur with ease and when barriers may prove prohibitive.

Abstract Hydro-Abrasive Jet Machining (HAJM) has demonstrated its suitability for several applications in the machining of a wide spectrum of materials (metals, polymers, ceramics, fibre reinforced composites, etc.). The paper is a contribution to the computer control, integration and optimization of HAJM process in order to establish a hierarchical control architecture and a platform for the implementation of a real-time Adaptive Control Optimization (ACO) module. The paper presents the approach followed and the main results obtained during the development and implementation of a HAJM cell and its computerized controller. A critical analysis of the process variables available in the literature is presented, in order to identify the process variables and to define a process model suitable for HAJM real-time control and optimization. Besides for HAJM computer control, in order to correlate process variables and parameters with machining results, a process model and an optimization procedure are necessary in order to avoid expensive and time-consuming experiments for the determination of optimal machining conditions. The paper presents the configuration of the cell and the specific components adopted in order to make possible a fully computerized control of the process, and the architecture of the controller, capable to manage the several logical and analogical signals from the different modules of the cell, for multiprogramming, process monitoring, controlling, process parameters predetermination, process condition multiobjective optimization. A prediction and an optimization model is presented allowing the identification of optimal machining conditions using multiobjective programming. This model is based on the definition of an economy function and a productivity function, with suitable constraints relevant to the required machining quality, the required kerfing depth and the available resources. A test case based on experimental results is discussed in order to validate the model.

This paper aims at examining how overtourism and tourismphobia are being approached as emergent research topics in current tourism literature. It conducts an analysis of 154 documents, indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection and Scopus databases. The study follows a quantitative and qualitative approach, with the support of VOSviewer and HistCite softwares for a descriptive content analysis. The analysis focuses on highlighting important aspects in terms of the most frequent publication sources (authors and journals); co-citation, as well as dimensions and research streams; methodologies used; results obtained; and implications for future research. The literature review unveiled that the concepts of overtourism and tourismphobia are usually related to destinations’ development, negative impacts, and tourism policies and regulation. Results show that, although tourism excesses and conflicts have been studied for long, ‘overtourism’ and ‘tourismphobia’ have become usual terms, mainly within the past three years. Even though the adoption of the terms can be considered by some as a ‘trend’, the in-depth analysis of the topics shed light on how ‘old’ concepts can evolve to adapt to contemporary tourism issues. Further studies are needed in tracking the evolution of these topics and their implications on the future of tourism.

Abstract Wikipedia’s content is based on reliable and published sources. To this date, relatively little is known about what sources Wikipedia relies on, in part because extracting citations and identifying cited sources is challenging. To close this gap, we release Wikipedia Citations, a comprehensive data set of citations extracted from Wikipedia. We extracted29.3 million citations from 6.1 million English Wikipedia articles as of May 2020, and classified as being books, journal articles, or Web content. We were thus able to extract 4.0 million citations to scholarly publications with known identifiers—including DOI, PMC, PMID, and ISBN—and further equip an extra 261 thousand citations with DOIs from Crossref. As a result, we find that 6.7% of Wikipedia articles cite at least one journal article with an associated DOI, and that Wikipedia cites just 2% of all articles with a DOI currently indexed in the Web of Science. We release our code to allow the community to extend upon our work and update the data set in the future.

Background: Exercise is believed to play an important role in maintaining functionality in patients with HIV and it is thought that researchers are increasingly interested in this field. We aimed to shed light on the historical development of research on HIV and exercise by utilizing visual mapping method. Methods: Overall, 1051 articles retrieved from Web of Science (WoS) core database were analyzed according to the publication year and language, number of issues, citation, country collaborations, co-citation networks and concept–topic trends by using CiteSpace software. Results: The United States played a key role in country collaborations, and had the highest citation burst. The most cited studies were meta-analysis studies. The studies gathered mainly around the clusters named “physical activity” and “metabolic abnormalities” meanwhile, the recent topics of research were heart failure, metabolism, comorbidity, Ethiopia, muscle, cardiovascular event and drug user. Conclusion: The reason why USA was found to be one of the key actors in the network is supposed to be the financial resources it can allocate for the studies conducted. It appears that the majority of the studies in the field dwell upon the impact of exercise on the physical parameters in HIV patients, whereas there are only a limited number of studies focusing on the impact of exercise on HIV-induced psychological and cognitive problems. Recent studies on neurocognitive impairment, on the other hand, are predictive of possible future popularity of such topics among researchers.

In this paper, bibliometric analysis is conducted on eco-innovation and internationalisation, since in the scientific literature, both research fields have been considered as being interrelated. Although the adoption of eco-innovation and internationalisation are risky processes, they reduce competitive risk and increase performance in a highly competitive business environment. The main objective of this study is to identify current research trends on the interrelationships of eco-innovations and internationalisation as well as the main areas of knowledge and to provide a general overview of research streams that can be classified using by papers, authors and journals found in the Web of Science database. In total, 1677 publications published between 1991 and 2020 related to eco-innovations and internationalisation were taken into consideration. For the visualisation of bibliographic material, VOSviewer software was used. These findings provide valuable insights by revealing the trends and highlighting the possible research streams for future investigations in the field of eco-innovations and internationalisation research.

THE FUNCTIONS OF ARMENIAN FEMALE ADORNMENTS (XVIII-XX CC.) Adornments as cherished keepsakes vary with their roles and significant meanings behind them. They have existed throughout history from ancient times to the present in particular ways to represent their positive and beneficial aspects as well as aesthetic value and beauty, belief and affiliation, custom and tradition to define social status within a community. Due to the provision of great amount of information about the adornments by early male and female wearers we come to know the wide spectrum of their performance indicating function and quantity, type and purpose, gender and age, time and circumstances. Articles of adornment progressed through ages in forms and in ways of wearing. One of the prized and popular purposes for jewelry is to signify valued relationships and bonding experiences to bring good luck to the person who possesses them. The symbolism often makes jewelry more meaningful and important carrying a positive connotation integrated into the design. They often serve as gifts. The form of donation (e.g. during the wedding rituals), oblation (e.g. to the church or a holy spring), getting and receiving adornments are very striking. On a larger scale studies on decorations of XVIII-XX cc. shed light on several benefits and several ideas of a strong positive message. The forms and the patterns of the decorations include symbols, often combination of symbols, associated with the sun, the moon, water (wavy lines), plants (bud, almond, flower, branches etc.), animals (snake, fish, frog, bee etc.), dragons and so on. From this point of view supernatural might of the metals, the precious stones and shells bring happiness and healing. The colours of artificial beads, wooden beads, made of the sacred trees wood and coins having apotropaic properties were considered to have a specific function as well. The rare inscriptions used as patterns are fairly notable too. There are fascinating materials in the Armenian folklore that add depth and a range of concepts to the context of the adornments which facilitate to recognize the character of the decorations profoundly and think about their prominent role within the Armenian culture.
